I’m not sure if I understand, but how would you access those reminder lists on Android devices? Is that possible somehow?

That could be a solution, but the thing is, I’m trying to slowly migrate all of the tools I’m using to something that’s independent on the platform. To be able to freely switch between iOS and Android whenever I want. (Preferrably to a degoogled Android). I’m also the person in our household who brings the new alternative, test it, make sure it will work crossplatform with other family members and so on…

As of now I’m still not ready to “jump the ship”, but I want to gather portfolio of tools to be able to do so at any time without significant discomfort (especially cnsidering other family members which are less open to experimentation)

This looks good. I’ll give it a try, thank you very much.

If you’re parsing 100k entries for an hour, I can tell you something is very wrong. Over my career I took care of lots of SAP systems (from Basis perspective) which ranged from small ERPs/EWMs with only few hundreds of GBs of data up to massive Business Warehouse systems with tens of terabytes.

And 100k entries really shouldn’t take that much, because that’s nothing. But of course it’s possible. SAP needs administration… You need to take care of the system, you need to take care of the underlying database. You need to be sure that you’re following proper recommendations to ensure good performance. And then there’s also a question what exactly was running slowly. SAP is usually heavily modified by custom coding and while the end user might not be aware which applications are “SAP standard” and which are custom, it makes a lot of difference. It’s easy for in-house developers to customize a program only for the program to work badly.

My point is - SAP can work perfectly fine as long as it’s maintained by experienced people and if the custom development is done properly. But companies love to cut corners and their employees don’t even know if the problematic report is created by SAP, or by some random developer with lack of experience. To the end user, it’s always SAP that’s bad.

I have long hair and I use similarly looking solid shampoo. What I do is, that I rub it in both hands and it foams quite quickly and heavilly. Then when I have both hands full of foamy soap, I rub it in hair and wash them similarly to how I would with a liquid shampoo. Maybe it sounds weird, but it’s pretty quick and effortless. But it’s very dependent on how good the soap foams. If you have a solid shampoo that doesn’t foam well, you would need to repeat this procedure multiple times and could be annoying.

I like Slovak brand Soaphoria. They’re focused on making ecological and natural products. Especially their solid shampoos are great (it’s also worth noting, that they’re only packaged in a paper box, not in a big plastic bottle).

Other brand that I like (even though it’s not really a hair-shampoo brand) is Floris London. They only have a single shampoo, but I have very good results out of that. But this one is a bit on the pricier side compared to Soaphoria.

I can only speak from my very limited experience. My father is the very example of a person who has some beliefs and tries to judge whole world through those beliefs. Everyone who doesn’t share those beliefs is an enemy. If you don’t believe in extreme opinion A, you automatically have to believe in extreme opinion B which is the opposite of A. You probably know such people.

Over last years, we yelled at each other lots of times, but that lead to nowhere. What actually helped was that finding the common ground. To make him understand that just because I don’t agree with his side, it doesn’t necessarily mean that I’m shilling for the other one. Not everything is bipolar. From my father’s perspective, everyone has to be either pro-Russian or pro-American (which is funny from today’s perspective, but I guess you get my point). You point out that Russia did something bad? He will tell you “Yeah and USA did <something>! You don’t have an issue with that”. And that’s the thing. To make him understand, that I DO have an issue with that. World is not a football match where you have to take a side and fully commit to it. You don’t have to go “full in” on a topic. Your opinion can be nuanced based on the actual topic, not just dumbed down into “my side thinks that A, so I agree with A. Your side thinks that B, so you have to agree with B”.

Before that I never had much success in having a proper discussion. It always ended up in a screaming match, because he wasn’t listening to arguments. He simply knew, that I had the “other” opinion, so my opinion was automatically wrong. Now he knows, that I don’t fully agree with anyone. He now somehow understands that my opinions are based on a set of principles, not on a tribalistic “my team” vs “your team”. And by understanding that, he’s more open to actually having a discussion on a topic, not just trying to convert me from “bad side” to “good side”.

And don’t get me wrong. He still believes in what he believes in. But he’s more open to accepting that not everything “his side” says is automatically correct. And that by itself is a small victory for me.

I’m aware of that, but that sounds like a waste to me. And I don’t mean financially. I’m just not a fan of getting rid of a piece of hardware while it’s still working perfectly fine, just to “prove a point”. I’m not willing to send any additional money to Amazon for books, but the hardware is already paid for.

But of course once the time comes for a new device, it will be a different brand.
